  1. I have Switched on my shelf and really want to read it! I've heard only amazing things about that series! I read Fallen back when it first came out and didn't totally love it, but I hope you do! Have a great weekend and Happy Holidays! :)

    1. I totally wanna read it soon! I've heard some good things, and I've heard some bad things, and I just wanna have my own opinion, you know what I mean? I've been hearing that Fallen wasn't all that great, but still, I hope that I like it. If I don't, surely someone else will! You too! :D

  2. Ooh, I got Pushing the Limits and Switched too! Though I thought the Switched series went downhill.... and I thought Fallen was (I'm sorry to say) an abomination. I really loved Cam though; he was my favorite character! I hope you like the books more than I did and have a great holiday!

    1. Ooh, I want to read Pushing the Limits so bad, because it sounds so freaking good! Aww, man. I guess I'll just have to read it and see. ;) I've been hearing that Fallen was pretty bad...that makes two votes for bad, now. Ooh, who is Cam? I hope that you have a Merry Christmas, Sophia! (:

    2. Aw you too! And he's in Fallen....the highlight of it. He was my fictional boyfriend all of sixth grade. :)

  8. Ooh, I'm happy to see you're doing your very own book haul meme! The only one I've read is Fallen. I think I remember really liking the beginning, liking it less as the book went on, and really disliking the two books that came next in the series. But I'm a picky reader, so I hope you like it more than me! I'll be waiting for a review. (:

    1. Aww, thanks, Chey! Haha, I've been keeping track of Fallen's scoring with my fellow book bloggers. It seems that it may be even. Fallen good, 3 Fallen sucks, 3. I actually do hope that I love it, and that I write a good review for it. Aww, you're so sweet, Chey. (:
